AMERICAN CAPITAL IN IT Spokane and Pittsburg Men Are Interested.���May Lead to Other Investments. J3EAT_C@. Copper Street J, P. FLOOD, Prop. ��� ,,V'>'WWW��> The Bay mine, once the center of attraction in local raining- circles, from which* has come some of the finest specimens of gold bearing rock ever seen in the Boundary, has resumed operations after being- closed down for some months. It was not lack of encouragement to proceed that caused suspension of work last,February, but it takes money to work a mine and a little more was required to successfully continue operations. Accordingly, Manager H. V. Fuller journed to Spokane and opetied negotiations with some of his friends, with the result that plenty of capital is now auailable aud work has been resumed. Mr. Fuller has associated with him men representing large Pittsburg capitalists where, it is stated, millions are lying idle awaiting just such opportunities as the Boundary affords for safe and highly profitable investment. UNLIMITED CAPITAI,. ���'.-'' For Mr. Fuller's Spokane associates this is the first Canadian investment, .andit was largely upon his personal recommendation that they became interested. To them it is largely a trial step, but should the Bay produce the .expected result?;and thefc:;ia^stments prove profitable, they - state that they will be ready to introduce unlimited capital into the mining interests of Greenwood. A FAMOUS MINE. In order to spread abroad with greater emphasis the already enviable fame of the Greenwood high grade mines, the Bay needs only to duplicate its past record. There was ���a time when the eyes of the whole country was centered on the Bay and crowds gathered on the street corners to view the rich gold bearing rock, and speculate upon the wealth of this and other mines. Selected samples have assayed several hundred dollars to the ton, and the 125 ! tons of unsorted ore shipped returned to the owners an average of $100 per ton a^t^^il-exp^njse^of^freig^'t-anS" treatment had been deducted. The last shipment made went $119.55 net, conclusively showing that the longer the mine was worked the better were the results obtained. PRESENT DEVELOPMENT.

The main shaft, with stope, is 125 feet, but on other shafts over 300 feet of sinking has been done, with 200 feet of drifting. Mr. Fuller started work Friday pumping out the shaft and as many men as possible will be put to work and the mine will be thoroughly developed. There is a steam boiler, blacksmith shop and ore houss on the property and a 20-horse power electric hoist has been ordered. Mr. Fuller states that there is now enough ore in sight to begin shipping as soon as an upraise can be made and the new hoist installed. A shipment will probably be made in about ten days from the time mining operations actually begin. The financial interests now in control will shortly be incorporated as a stock company and officers elected. In the meantime Mr. Fuller will be in charge. ELECTROCUTED Clarence Stelle Meets Sudden Death at Smelter. A sad accident occurred at the B. C. smelter Tuesday morning when Clarence Stelle came to sudden death by coming in contact with a live wire. The unfortunate man was engaged in adjusting some wires and came in contact with a live wire and received a se/ere shock. He was; standing on a ladder some twenty feet from the ground, and not being able to call out, no one knew of his danger. The fierce current pulsating through his hands burned off his fingers and released the suffering v.ictim and the un- consciaus form fell to the ground, terribly burned but still animate. The ambulance was hurriedly called and Stelle was placed therein, but his condition was so low that before much of the journey was covered life expired; and the body was taken to Gulley's undertaking,parlors. v: ���:."��������� ������'.'��� :*���'��� r The late Mr. Stelle was a man about 30 years of age. He was a native of the United States, having been born in New York city. For some years he was extensively engaged in the oil business in California, but through the influence of the Standard Oil Co. he lost his property and business. Being an electrician, he engaged in that business in San Francisco, and was just ready to carry put some Alaskan contracts, having the.material all ready on the wharf for shipment when the earthquake ruined the city and deposited his supplies in the sea'.' He escaped with 50 cents and afterwards worked his way to Greenwood, arriving here last month. He was a skilled workman, and had just set to work to rebuild'his'forturies^dh^Canadian'soil^ when his career was so suddenly cut off. He was a much esteemed young man and a member of the Episcopal church. An inquest was held "Wednesday afternoon and the verdict returned by the jury attached no blame either upon the company or the unfortunate victim. Every effort was made to find his relatives, but without success, and the funeral took place Thursday afternoon from St. Jude's church, Rev. J. Leech- Porter officiating. PALLBEARERS AND FLOWERS At the funeral of Clarence Stelle the following were pallbearers: J. H. Higgins, George Henshaw, G. Higley, Alex Fraser, Charles Fallu and Steven Irwin. Flowers were sent by Mrs. J. E. McAllister, Mrs. Frederick Keffer and Mrs. Collins and a cross by Messrs. J. W. Parker, J. W. Connell and J. G. Hamilton. Others interested also sent other floral tributes. CARD OF THANKS On behalf of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the local members of the union, through George Heushaw, wish to thank Mr. McAllister, of the B. C. Copper Co., for his kind assistance and sympathy in connection with the death of Clarence Stelle, who lost his life at the smelter Tuesday morning. Mr. McAllister, on behalf of the company, donated a sum sufficient to meet the funeral expenses and personally sent flowers. The local electrical workers greatly appreciate these acts of kindness and expressions of sympathy. You can rent guns, tents or house goods from A. L.White,2nd-hand man. STRIKE IN CRESCENT Eight-Inch Vein of Very Rich Ore. AT THE 150.F00T LEVEL Manager Jeffery Reports Good Progress and Great Encouragement.��� Putting in 7-Drill Compressor Since the opening of the Crescent mine under the management of W. H. Jeffery some time ago, the work of sinking the shaft has gone steadily on until at present a depth of 150 feet has been reached, and one of the best shafts in the camp has been opened. As the work proceeded the quality of the ore taken out has steadily increased, and on Tuesday night an eight-inch vein of rich ore was struck. The vein is strong and shows a tendency to widen and as the shaft goes down it will probably increase in value. The work on the shaft will be continued until the 200 foot level is reached when drifts will be opened and stoping commenced. Preparations are under way for the erection of a seven-drill electric compressor, and with this addition to the working facilities development will go forward with much greater progress. Colonel Dickason, of Chicago, the proprietor of the'Crescent, is still enjoying his Canadian holiday on the Kootenay'lakes and he will probably enjoy himself still better when he hears of the latest strike. HOME AGAIN Local Banker Returns from Visit to the Golden Gate. H. F, Stow, manager for the Bank of British North America, arrived' home Monday night from his vacation in California, and he looks the better for his pleasant trip. Mr. Stow visited San Francisco, where he found business in a most unsatisfactory condition. He reports that the progress of the city to a renewed prosperity ia practically at a standstill through the labor unions refusing to co-operate with the municipal government in its attempt to bring order out of chaos. The unions have all gone on strike for shorter hours and big wages. As a consequence building is at a standstill and the streets have not even been cleared of the debris that fills them. Not a wheel is turning on the electric car system and automobiles, cabs and conveyances of all kinds can be had only by paying extortionate rates. Mr. Stow is doubtful if San Francisco will ev>:r regain its former commercial importance. THE COPPER MARKET Nbw York, Sept. 16.���The copper maiket is much more active, but prices are unchanged. Lake is selling at 18J< cents and electrolytic at 18# cents per pound. Sales are being made at these prices for October, November and December account, considerable copper having1 been sold recently for delivery during the last month of the year. There is very little spot copper for sale and it is not impossible that 19 cents may be piid for cash deliveries before the end of September. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Acts on Nature's Plan.

In entering upon another year and another era we look forward to the future with renewed hope and with a determination that the success of the.past shall be but an incentive to attain to better aud greater things in the future. We cannot let this opportunity pass without expressing our thanks for the ever ready patronage accorded us by the prosperous, enterprising and <farseeing business men of Greenwood and vicinity.

To our numerous subscribers we render our heartiest thanks for their faithful support and trust that in future issues fhey"will find an increasing interest. One advantage Greenwood secured from the anticipated visit of the Governor General was the cleaning of the streets. Had His Excellency visited the city he would have found that Copper street would have done credit to a city of much larger population.

VISIT IS CANCELLED Vice Regal Party Cannot Come to Greenwood. The much heralded visit of His Excellency, Earl Grey, Governor-General of Canada, has, unfortunately, been cancelled, owing to illness. While in Winnipeg an electric light bulb exploded one evening in His Excellency's face and several particles of glass lodged in one of his eyes, necessitating surgical treatment. During the trip across the prairies the injured optic "did not interfere with the plans of the vice regal party, but during the stay in Nelson it had become inflamed and its condition has made it imperative that His Excellency take a rest for a few days. The Movernor-G-'neral is aKo suffering from a i attack of influenza as stated in the following dispatch received yesterday by Acting Mayor Bunting: "Acting Mayor Bunting: His Ex cellency deeply regrets that owin^ to an attack of influenza, which is confining him to his room, he is unable to make the visit tomorrow, to which he and Lady Grey had been much looking forward. Signed, A. D. C." The vice regal party were expected to arrive here at 12 o'clock noon, Fri day. Arrangements had been made to meet the visitors at the depot with carriages and the band. They were to be escorted lo the courthouse where an address was to have been read and a welcome given by the school children. After an hour or two's stay in the city they were to be driven to Grand Forks. The cancellation of the visit has been received by the people with feelings of regret. The vice regal party rwill. however, continue their trip to the coast, arriving there in time to open the Provincial fair at New Westminster. BIG GOLD STRIKE Immense Deposit Found in Peace River Country, Vancouver, Sept. 6.���A dispatch to the World says: "The Dominion government exploration party, winch has returned to Edmonton after a two years' campaign in the Peace River country, brings a story of gold discovery which bears every indication of being the biggest thing ever struck on this side of the divide. Crude avsay's made with improvised mortar, quick silver ;ind nitric acid, indicated values running all the way from $7.50 to $32 a ton. Mr. A. J. Macdon :u:ll. U-ade.r of the party, brought out several sacks of rock, which he is taking to Ottawa to have subjected to'an accurate laboratory test. Mr. Macdonnell describes the dyk-: as being eight miles in length, as far. as the explorers were able to learn, and he believes that it extends back to the old river : I) an k at the foot of the hill, in half-moon fashion, at a width of nearly 5,000 feet. It ranges in thickness from 50 to 200 feet, with {.ravel above and below. The rock is very soft and crumbles freely in the hand. The theory is that it was a silt deposit, which hardened, "The mission of the explorers was che selection of 4,500,000 acres of land, which the province of Hritish Columbia owes to the Dominion government. Their work kept them in the neighbor^ hood of Peace river for many' mouths. In April of this year they made the discover)-. They found that a large dyke of sedimentary slate, situated below Fort John, 17, miles on the British ..Columbia side of the provincial boundary, was gold-bearing. An immediate stampede.followed. The members' x>f the exploration party, headed by Mr. Macdonnell, located 17 claims along the river, where the dyke outcrops. . Members of the mounted police party, who are putting the Peace river road through to Atlin, also located claims. Mr. Macdonnell believes that the discovery outrivals the Rand. ulcers, bad legs, sore feet, abscesses, boils, ringworms, erysipelas, scrofula, barber's rash, insect stings, stiffness, rheumatism,'and all injured, diseased or inflamed conditions of the skin" Of all druggists at 50c a box, or direct from the ��am-Buk Co., Colborne street, Toronto, upon receipt of price.

The McKinley claim, on the North Fork, has been fully surveyed and a map will be issued showing contours, depths and directions drilled and other important information necessary for the prosecution of future work. A lot of work has been done on the claim and it is probable that the bond will be taken up when it becomes due. Diamond drilling is proceeding on the Banner claim, and upon the results obtained ih this preliminary work depends to what, extent prospecting will be continued, Another drill is being kept at work on the magnetic iron showing and a depth of 200 feet has been reached and a fairly clear idea of the importance of this body of magnetite will shortly be obtained. Five men i're at. work on the Maple Leaf f.nd the Dominion Copper Co. are keeping their men steadily employed. An exposure of galena has been made on the Union 200 feet away from the strike made a short time ago. Three nien are at work on the White Bear group and the whole i.anip is vigorously active. ^TOfflQffl���^^ CF* CF* CF< CF* CF* CF< CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* CF* &=< C=< Q^i CF* CF* CF* Q��< CF* <F* T3* �� e Ofltrc.li.

The editor of the Hedley Gazette recently took a trip through the I^owcr Similkameen, which he described in part as follows: "At no time of the year does the Lower Similkameen appear lo hetter advantage tliau in the waning days of August, when the last of the hay crop has been garnered in and the orchards are staggering under their loads of luscious, mellow fruit. But the Similkameen of today and that of ten years ago are in many respects different, for the transition stage has set in, and has advanced sufficiently to give the merest suggestion of the conditions which will obtain ten years.hence. The Similkameen of ten years ago -was almost .wholly a pastoral scene, where the few settlers dwelt in Aroadian simplicity and contentment reig ned. Their herds, numbered by the thousands,' pastured the summer on the^ upper ranges, and from the wide, rich valley below Kere meos creek with its miles of 'meadow' sweet,' was gathered thousands of tons of sweet smelling hay, almost the entire summer being devoted to the saving of this winter's supply of fodder for the cattle, which were brought; down in the autumn to pasture the winter in the lowlands. To their credit be it said, the British Columbia cattle men in this part of the province were more humane than many elsewhere, and provided amply for the winter. Now the number of cattle has been greatly reduced, and sub divide is the . watchword.-^Further reduction will 'steadily be made' until a few years hence fifteen lo twenty acres maybe about the average holding. ��� "In subdivision the example has been .-set by the Keremeos Land company, in ��� which W. H. Armstrong is the leading- shareholder, atiia the property subdi-' vided is that of the Coulthard estate, purchased nearly two years ago from Mr Coulthard, Most of the land which ' they have sold ,is. .in ten-acre blocks, -and on these subdivisions which have been disposed of, something over 15,000 trees have been set out this year. "By the kindness of Rev. A. H. Cameron, who is conversant with the ^various holdings, is an enthusiast on \the capabilities of the district for fruit 'growing, and who drove the writer around with his horse and buggy, the Gazette was enabled, by the exercise oi .diligence, to see. a great deal, but it . .would take more than one whole day to see it all. ...���.,.,������-.��� MR. RICHTER'S RANCH. - ������ {Was thefirst visited, and the most no- ���-ticeable feature was the broad expanse i of dark green alfalfa (130 acres in one field), the third crop this season, which a. movrer was cutting down and a horse fake putting into heaps ready' for 'stacking. After this crop has been saved* another will be allowed to grow, which will be ready to turn the cattle into when they are brought down in October. Ten years ago Mr. Richter purchased thjs ranch from Frank Sur- ^ris^7^^d~fou1id'it1covcred;Iwith'grease5" wood and sage brush, with the excep tion of the'small patch upon which some peach and apple trees were planted and had been bearing for some .years. This purchase of his was severely criticized when made, and sundry sly wipes were given him. He was told of the enormous growth of weeds which had choked out the only crop that had been'tried on that quality of land, and ,he concluded that the ground which would grow- such a crop of weeds as desrribed to hint; was about the kind of ground that he liked best to have.' It was a common, iense but nevertheless shrewd conclusion to arrive at. and. the sequal has shown the wisdom of it in the magnificent ranch which he now has, and which po��silily $100,000 would not buy from him. "The orchard covers about 25 acres and contains a wide variety of fruits. but peaches, apples and plums form the greatest part. The peach crop this year, Mr. Richter says, is not so large as last year, pwing to a severe frost in the spring which did some damage. Nevertheless, it is seen that branches have btoken: off with the weight, and some of the fruit on the trees when measured went ten inches in circum- ' ference and were not yet ripe. Of peaches, he has two varieties, the early Crawford, which for flavor, color and size, is not surpassed by any other variety, and the Alberta, which, although not equal to the early Crawford, is profitable to grow with the early Crawford, as it comes in later and hence might escape frost that would injure the other, besides the advantage of having a peach to come in after the other was gone. Mr. Ri.-hter does not irrigate but substitutes cultivation for irrigation. There is no green sward under his .trees and ne weeds are al- BOUNDARY ORE TONNAGE.

The ".'beneficial effect of cultivation was proven in th>. case of the old peach trees, 19 years old, planted by. Surprise. Now the average life of a peach tree in the east' was always held to be 12 years. These old trees began to give ���'fruit very much diminished in size, .and Mr. Richter interpreted this dwindling-off as a sign that thelifeof the tree had about run, but he ; cultivated 'the soil alongside them, nevertheless, and was agreeably surprised to find that the trees re spoinded with fruil in size and flavor equal' to what they'had been at their best. "Mr: Richter also had a number of almond trees, which' bore a good crop last year, but were caught this spring with the frost, owing largely to the fact that by too much cultivation ".last year there wa< too much new wood exposed to the weather. Mr. Richter is'a keen observer, arid little circumstances of this kind that to others would pass unnoticed and 'unimproved have, for him a valuable lesson. Some may think Hint his success'has been the re- suit of blind luck, lint they are very much mistaken. The.ground now covered with his orchard was formerly a wheat field which yielded him 700 bushels off ten acres. Cultivation is his hobby, and close observance of the effect thereof has enabled him to turn it to profit."

The herbs of the field and the trees of the forest constitute nature's " medicine chest;" and the highest benefit which science can confer on man is the discovery of nature's medicinal balms and essences, and their preparation in form suitable for use by the people. Bileans for Biliousness���the great Australian cure for indigestion, headache, debility, liver trouble, etc.���are purely-vegetable. They are eatirely different and superior to ordinary liver and stomach medicines. It is ��eM known that liver medicines hitherto in use mostly contain bismuth, mcrccuy, and other harmful mineral products, and rely upon these ingredients for their temporary effects. These mineral constituents are very injurious if taken for long, and produce such effects as that of loosening the teeth, causing the hair to fall out, etc. Bileans are entirely superior. They are compounded from extracts and juices of the finest known medicinal plants. In taking them there is no fear whatever of any harmful secondary effects. They cure that which they are taken to cure, and do not leave behind them evils worse than the original ones. They do not merely purge and weaken, like the old-fashioned medicines, or do the work which the liver and stomach should do. They ton* a up and enable these organs to fulfil their proper functions, so that when a cure is effected and Bileans are left off, the organs remain strong and healthy. Users of Bileans need therefore never fear their use will lead to the contracting of the terrible "pill-taking" habit. At this timeof the year the body needs toning up to ni-v ������ the demands that will be miule upon it by the couun. winter.

Elaborate preparations are being rnade-for,==the-=fancy-dress-iball^to^be- given on Carnival night of the Spokane Interstate fair. The ball will be held in the big hall under the grandstand at the fair, a room 180 feet long b}' 50 feet in width, large enough to accommodate' 300 couples. Only persons in fancy costumes; will be permitted on the floor, but no masks will be worn. The ball will open with tbe dancing of a minuet by the Queen of the Carnival, her Court and the Knights of Honor. Tickets admitting one couple are SI.50 and 50 cents for. each additional lady. The affair promises to be the fall society event in Spokane. The committee in charge is R. Insinger, manager of the Holland bank; Percy P. Powell, of the Powell-Sanders Co.; Chas. Hebbard, manager Tull & Gibbs; S. R. Stern, attorney, and W(l. L. Mc- Callum, deputy county treasurer. TV:e illumination foi the big carnival parade on the opening night of the fair is being planned on a grand scale. The entire space in front of the grandstand for a distance of 600 feet will be lighted with rows of electric arc lights, backed by reflectors, throwing an intense light upon the processicn. Three hundred torches will be distributed throughout the parade. Each of these torches burns an hour, throwing a steady white li^ht. When the parade passes the grandstand fur the second time a brilliant display of prismatic lights will begin and the parade will pass through a beautiful avenue of changing colored fire effect, lasting nearly one half hour. For the Oriental ceremonies which follow the parade spot lights will be used to illuminate the stage in front of the graudstaiul and as the Carnival chorus sings the closing chant prismatic mines will be fired, lighting up the entire scene artistically. The committee is sparing uo funds to make the illuminations the big feature of the parade. 4�� The Canadian Western Oil Co.

A GOOD ADVERTISEMENT A Plan to Make Greenwood Better Known by Placing Samples Where Thousands May See- David Boyle, superintendent of the Ontario government museum, was visiting his son, J. B. Boyle, of Phoenix, early this week, and also paid a short visit with acquaintances in Greenwood. Through his connection with ihe Ontario museum Mr. Boyle naturally takes a keen interest not only in relics, but also in minerals of all kinds. This is Mr. Boyle's first visit to this part of British Columbia and he became at once impressed with the importance of the mining interests here. His interest in the Boundary mines is so great that he will gather specimens of ore which will make a suitable collection to represent the wealth and importance of Greenwood initios. These will be labelled and placed on exhibition at the museum and will become a standing advertisement to Greenwood. The importance-of this can easily be realized when it is remembeied that-thousands of, visitors from almost all par's of the world visit the Ontario museum annually. As it is in connection with the University,' Normal school and other educational institutions of Toronto, it is a source of information and interest to hundreds of advanced students who are thus enabled to become familiar with the mineral resources of the Dominion. Mr. Boyle wishes to make known that any mine owner wishing to have his ores represented in the collection can do so by leaving samples at White's drug store. GOING TO NEW YORK W. C. Thomas, superintendent for the Boundary Falls smelter, left Friday for New York on a business trip in the interests of his company. Considerable delay has been experienced in receiving the machinery for the smelter improvements, and Mr. Thomas will hurry things along if possible. In any case, he expects it will be January 1st before, all the equipment has been received and iustalled and the smelter going full blast. When completed the plant will have a capacity for 1,200 tons of ore per day, N & be .{son B r The GROCERS. ��th e 'i\ T H JJ) W AL'LA C 10 - M H U K BLOCK Fruits Bananas, Oranges, Lemons, Pineapples, Strawberries HAVK YOU TRIED 'IT?

POWER LINES BUILDING Connections Being Made With Boundary Falls, Mother Lode and Phoenix. The erection of the sub-station of the B. C. Construction & Distributing Co. :it Anaconda, has been completed and the building is now ready for its equipment of machinery Supplies are coming- in slowly, and as manufacturers everywhere are rushed with orders and far behind with their work, it will probably be December before the full equipment will have been installed. When the work has been finally completed the sub-station will be one of the best equipped on the continent. The machinery ordered is all of the best quality aud latest type and will be sufficient to supply the needs of the smelters and mines tor years to come. At present temporary arrangements are enabling the company to handle 20,000 volts from Bonnington, which are steped down to 2,200 volts and supplied to the B. C. smelter. The substation is now in a. position to supply sufficient power to run one of the new big furnaces and this will be utilized as soon as the copper company are ready to start smelting. The power company expect to be able to supply sufficient power to meet all future demands of the smelter. "When the full capacity has been reached 60,000 volts will be received and steped down by the, different .transformers-.to 2,200 and 500 volts. The company are now preparing to build power lines to Boundary Falls, Mother Lode, Emma mine and Phoenix.* Work on the Mother Lode Ifne will start next week, and the others will be completed as rapidly as possible. At the power station L. A. Campbell, manager for the company, has made arrangements to provide a comfortable dwelling; house for the employees, three in number. Ihe house in the rear has been fitted with modern conveniences .lnd remodeled to suit all the needs of the occupants. The grounds surrounding the power station and house will be cleaned up and made into a lawn with flowers, etc. The building has be.n planned and finished in artistic styl:, and when . finally completed will present a pleasing appearance and be a credit to the community. George Henshaw is at present in charge of the electrical work. THE MERCHANT'S CORNER Helps the Town. Some towns are unfortunate enough to have one or more business men who take no interest in anything in their community beyond that which will directly contribute to the accumulation of money iu their owmprivate coffers, They persistently refuse to assist any public enterprise that will tend to improve the community at large and they energetically combat every effort upon the part of their employees to secure shorter hours and a weekly half holiday. They keep their shop doors open as late as the law or private decency will allow, and they never under any circumstances push their business by advertising in the local paper. They don't believe in advertising. It cost* tOD much. They wouldn't even spend one hundred dollars a year in printer's ink, and very often they don't even subscribe for the paper that is doing all that it can, and more than anything else in the whole town, to make known abroad the resources and opportunities of the town and district. Their penurious smallness goes still farther, and for every possible bit of printing they send to eastern or southern cities where it is occasionally possible to secuie work a little cheaper than their local printer can possibly do it, while at the same time they heartily abuse the customer who sends to Timothy Eaton's or elsewhere for better goods at cheaper prices. Is the merchant who never advertises and sends east for his printing any better than the customer who buys goods in the cheapest market? Cold nights are coining and you want the best underwear.

The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907).

The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
